Product Snapshot: Tropical Foods adds three flavors to its line of Buffalo Nuts, peanuts with a kick of zesty buffalo wing flavor: Buffalo Nuts with Ranch, Buffalo Nuts with Blue Cheese and Honey Roasted Buffalo Nuts. The nuts contain no trans-fat or cholesterol and have 160-170 calories per quarter-cup serving, depending on the flavor. While they’re tasty on their own or with a cold beverage, Buffalo Nuts can also be used as a salad topper, in vegetable fried rice or in other dishes.
